Until Dawn (2025) 52% 3/5 “On its own, lower-stakes terms, Until Dawn is a passable, if rather unfrightening frightener, made with some skill and enlivened by a strong troupe of young actors.” – Guardian Apr 24, 2025 Full Review G20 (2025) 58% 3/5 “The action is serviceable enough, enjoyment based less on deftly staged choreography and more on the catharsis offered to Davis, as president and actor. ” – Guardian Apr 10, 2025 Full Review The Life List (2025) 45% 2/5 “The word “messy” is bandied around by its characters but The Life List is far too clean.” – Guardian Apr 8, 2025 Full Review The Parenting (2025) 48% 2/5 “As a comedy, it stops being funny and as a horror it never starts being scary with Johnson’s direction far too drab and lifeless for something so cartoonish and schlocky. Big swing, bigger miss.” – Guardian Mar 15, 2025 Full Review Novocaine (2025) 81% 2/5 “After exhausting its elevator pitch premise, the script, from Lars Jacobson, doesn’t have much more to offer.” – Guardian Mar 11, 2025 Full Review The Monkey (2025) 78% 2/5 “If the aim is numbing us to the shock of a violent death then perhaps the film succeeds but surely we shouldn’t be quite so bored by it too.” – Guardian Feb 19, 2025 Full Review The Gorge (2025) 63% 2/5 “Despite looking like it was based on a video game that your younger brother obsessively plays, The Gorge is in fact an original, or whatever that word means when the plot and aesthetic feel like they’ve been stitched together from so many other films.” – Guardian Feb 14, 2025 Full Review Heart Eyes (2025) 81% 2/5 “No one expects, or wants, every slasher to emulate the snappy self-awareness of Scream but Ruben isn’t even able to conjure up the fun of something with far less expectation attached. ” – Guardian Feb 7, 2025 Full Review Lurker (2025) 96% 4/5 “As things go from bad to worse, it’s a captivatingly nasty descent as Matthew’s mask starts to slip, offering up the sort of clammy suspense that one hopes for from this territory without falling into the equally expected overwrought absurdity.” – Guardian Feb 5, 2025 Full Review You're Cordially Invited (2025) 48% 3/5 “The real win here is watching Witherspoon and Ferrell show off, both unrestrained by a harder rating and a more raucous script than the norm... they both make for wonderfully petty antiheroes. ” – Guardian Jan 31, 2025 Full Review Companion (2025) 93% 2/5 “Like a lot of first-time writer-directors, Hancock is a far better director than writer, and so the film is more sleekly made than it is thoughtfully written... For a film about advanced technology, it’s all awfully simple.” – Guardian Jan 31, 2025 Full Review Opus (2025) 41% 2/5 “It’s frustrating to see yet another first-time film-maker overstack their plate in such a way that feels less like the product of impressive ambition and more empty bravado. ” – Guardian Jan 31, 2025 Full Review Rebuilding (2025) 96% 3/5 “[Josh O'Connor] himself well, an actor who can do a lot with very little, relying on the tiny details of his unusual face to express emotions the script mostly chooses to repress.” – Guardian Jan 28, 2025 Full Review Together (2025) 100% 3/5 “A convincingly gory argument for being single.” – Guardian Jan 28, 2025 Full Review Atropia (2025) 41% 2/5 “A deadening jumble of ideas, tones, motivations and genres that just doesn’t coalesce into much of anything. It gives one the frustrating feeling of emptiness despite such a rich subject.” – Guardian Jan 28, 2025 Full Review Kiss of the Spider Woman (2025) 82% 3/5 “The rockiness can drag some of the film’s two hour-plus runtime, but there’s something fascinating about the unusual, overstuffed, indefinable mess of it all.” – Guardian Jan 27, 2025 Full Review Oh, Hi! (2025) 72% 2/5 “The decision to crank so much of the film up to an 11 drowns out any shred of insight and it also becomes uncomfortable for Gordon.” – Guardian Jan 27, 2025 Full Review Rabbit Trap (2025) 43% “Chainey is certainly skilled at distracting us, drowning his film in atmosphere and mood to offset the devolving half-baked hokum of his plot. But after being urged to listen closer, to try and hear for something more, we’re left with nothing. ” – Guardian Jan 26, 2025 Full Review The Thing with Feathers (2025) 53% 2/5 “It’s never scary or jolting enough as a horror or as emotionally investing or psychologically insightful as it should be as a drama. What’s crucially missing is detail, both in the characters themselves and the weight of what they’re going through.” – Guardian Jan 26, 2025 Full Review Jimpa (2025) 50% 2/5 “There is something interesting about Colman’s director being so reticent to centre her life and work on conflict, but it soon becomes a dramatic problem for the film which coasts on shaggy, diminishing bohemian warmth for far too long. ” – Guardian Jan 25, 2025 Full Review If I Had Legs I'd Kick You (2025) 93% 3/5 “In just under two hours with a plate filled a little too high, not everything here quite works as well as Byrne, but Bronstein clearly hasn’t made something to be liked, she’s made something to be experienced. ” – Guardian Jan 25, 2025 Full Review Twinless (2025) 95% 4/5 “Given the twisty, often jaw-droppingly unexpected nature of Twinless, it’ll be a hard one to keep fully under wraps until release. It’s doubly hard given how hugely impressive the film is as well.” – Guardian Jan 24, 2025 Full Review Back in Action (2025) 28% 2/5 “While it might prove that Diaz still possesses that same particular magic, it also shows that she should be far more discerning with how she chooses to share it.” – Guardian Jan 18, 2025 Full Review Our Little Secret (2024) 37% 3/5 “Lohan and Harding are decent enough at the bantering -- the latter has a Seth MacFarlane-esque elasticity that really works here -- but the script, from first-time writer Hailey DeDominicis, isn’t smart or inventive enough to really stretch them.” – Guardian Nov 27, 2024 Full Review Dear Santa (2024) 24% 2/5 “There’s just nothing all that inventive despite the broad rule-free canvas.” – Guardian Nov 26, 2024 Full Review
